Under God - What does that mean and to whom?

By Remy Benoit

There has been much talk about morals and God concerning the recent election.

There has been much talk about many things and all of it remaining, indeed, fostering what is divisive rather than what we have in common. Words have power to heal, and power to divide, indeed, conquer.

I don't think that anyone can argue against the fact that while religion is a mainstay, a devotion, a commitment, in peoples' lives, its history has been infused with violence, dissent, persecution of all kinds. We need to remember that.

Loving by Remy Benoit

Rhea and Jordan Devereaux had it all: undying devotion, a tender love, and a grand passion. And then the Vietnam War separated them. Follow the course of their love across time and space. Journey with them through the steaming jungle; dance with the Mardi Gras revelers while revolution unseats Louis XVI and protestors on the Washington Mall scream, Hell, NO. We won't Go. Sail with Laffite's pirates into Devil's Isle and rejoice as an unconditional and timeless love emerges victorious.
